Shame

I think shame is natural and inevitable, it seems like people treat it as something to be disdained, or else theyre carried off and take it too seriously. If you do something morally "wrong" and feel like shit over it, thats a dose of shame which helps us to avoid doing these things again.
Im all for embracing anger, pain and shame within reasonable limits, this is how we learn. Everyone feels shame, no in is perfect in their actions, but I get the impression that many people suppress this feeling, ashamed of their shame, proud.
What is your greatest shame?

I have no idea how to emotionally carry people. It's a bit of embarrassment. I do try to pretend well but I believe I fail.

I have learned a number of "do's and don't's" from shame. I definitely have felt real shame and will probably feel more shame in the future, as will everyone else alive. I think if you don't feel an ounce of shame in your entire life then you must be assburgerd af

Ive neglected my women and friendships at times by being calloused, and when I was much younger I did some thieving
There are too many small regrets to count, so I dont think about it much, but I try to be generous now with time, goods and affection

What's shame?
--------------------
Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

I'm ashamed of the shroomery.
Some of the most powerful mind altering plants and there are lot's of idiots that claim to be enlightened thru them.
I'm not so sure how there are Republicans and shroomerites.

I don't believe any republican media would want a republican shroomerite representing their bowel movement let alone anything else.

Psychopaths live without shame. That is what makes them so dangerous.

Do they truly have no shame? Or do they repress it?
All we can do is ask them

Shame manifests in many ways. Usually an extreme emotion but it could be flat emotion.
Never can tell with some people. Usually if you would feel shame, it's safe to project that analysis.

It can be overwhelming in its own way, but its one of the more shallow emotions in my experience, anger, fear and ecstasy can literally make me blind, forget who I am, shake... maybe I just havent fucked up bad enough but shame has never reached same level.

Probably because of unrealized and not integrating shame. So it boils over into other emotions.

I dont think so, nothing Ive done would merit a level of shame to compete with an emotion like rage, I can only really speculate that shame has that potential. On the other hand, one can get set off with anger in a traffic jam for basically no reason but minor inconveniences piled together, so maybe one shouldnt need that much stimulation to test an equivilant feeling of shame...
Do people feel different levels of different emotions? I would compare anger, lamentation and happiness as relatively even in potency. Maybe someone else doesnt experience the same balance

What I mean is instead of experiencing shame people are wired to experience other emotions. Not that any one emotion is healthy as an option. But shame might be more survivable than rage in our modern world. Then again anger might be better than shame.

Oh yeah I may agree, whether this is cultural conditioning or the natural balance is another question altogether.
I do wonder how others feel though, if other might be more or less affected by certain emotions, and how we develop into our different emotional perceptions... culture, genetics, experience, age, gender, maybe even race

When i was schizophrenic i came up with the little saying "ALL I FEEL IS SHAME" it meant a lot at the time
-------------------- Something there is mysteriously formed, Existing before Heaven and Earth, Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging, All-pervading, unfailing, I do not know its name; I call it tao. If forced to give it a name, I call it Great (ta). Being great, it flows out; Flowing out means far-reaching; Being far-reaching, it is said to return. It's just a shot away..
